MoreSally's rabbit Hop-pity, by error, is transported from the 21st back to the 19th century, by Father Time. Hop-pity shakes off his predator, swims to safety and is fostered by the Brown Rabbit family - who teach him to fend for himself.
Leaving with Whistler the family's talking kettle, her lives beneath Dr. Cyril Squirrel's oak tree. Woodland friend warning him of Farmer Beddow's whereabouts - yet he has many close encounters. Migratory geese tell that Billy the Kid's wanted dead or alive! As angora is made from goat and rabbit fur, it is assumed that the wool shop owner has made a pact with Farmer Beddow to make Hop-pity into angora wool and rabbit pie. Hop-pity and Cyril plan to emigrate - However Hop-pity marries Rosy Brown rabbit.
After more adventures Hop-pity is caught - the shock sending Rosy into labour. She thinks Hop-pity will die without seeing his offspring. Father time intercedes sending Hop-pity into the 21st century where the farmer's great, great, great grandson catches him. And having saw Sally's card in the wool shop window, delivers Hop-pity to the owner. Consequently Hop-pity and Sally are reunited.
Meanwhile in the 19th century strange ingredients fall into Dr. Squirrels soup. He throws it out in disgust. An acorn feeds on the liquid, grows rapidly - its roots breaking into Rosy's burrow. Her father follows a root, digs upward to find an oak tree growing in the 21st century - reuniting Rosy and Hop-pity. The agree their bunnies spend Sundays with Hop-pity because that's the day Sally's family visits her Grandma, but live with Rosy n the 19th century safe from traffic on 21st century's busy road.
